Chapter 387 The Queen returns to the dynasty
The queen was obviously impatient and perfunctory about the old ministers' crying, but some people were still confused and cried like they were like the queen being the biological mother. Later, Lin Ke found that something was wrong and quickly asked a few people to go up and pull up a few particularly "entwined" ones. This round of "speaking the heart" ended.
"Your Majesty, please... return to the court and preside over the overall situation." Lin Ke stepped forward and asked for instructions.
At this time, Gu Weipan and Han Jian also walked forward and made a petition. But Han Jian also knew that the queen would definitely have a power conflict with him when she returned, which could only be regarded as his attitude.
The queen glanced at Han Jian with a slightly complicated expression. She didn't say anything, but walked forward, but she had not taken off her monk's robes and hats on her body, and then walked out of the Taoist temple like this.
When officials and people who had been waiting outside the Taoist temple saw the queen come out, some officials who recognized the queen first knelt down, and then more people knelt down. Before the Taoist temple, there was a lot of noise, mostly greetings. Because there was no unified slogan, the scene was also noisy.
"Your Majesty returns to the court!" Someone shouted, and the queen began to walk outside the dense forest. The officials and the onlookers consciously made a way for the queen to pass through.
Han Jian, Lin Ke and others followed, and the queen suddenly stopped, and Han Jian and others had to stop.
"I want to have a secret talk with the Eastern King, and the others will go away." The queen turned around and looked at Han Jian and said.
Han Jian was worried about coming to pick up the queen, but there was no emperor's chasing or gunmeng at all. The queen seemed very unimportant when walking back like this or riding in an ordinary carriage. So he informed Han Song and nodded. He immediately arranged for the people from the Eastern Prince's Mansion to prepare.
At this time, Han Jian also walked forward and stood behind the empress. The other officials and the people were very aware of each other and hurriedly retreated until they retreated a hundred steps away. The guards surrounded the surroundings again and did not allow anyone to approach the two of them.
Han Jian bowed and lowered his head for a long time. He was waiting for the Queen's scolding, but after a while, he found that the Queen was just staring at the mountain bag in the distance. She was very stunning.
"Your Majesty. I don't know what to ask my subordinates?" Han Jian had no choice but to remind the queen.
The queen sighed and suddenly asked, "Dongwang, do you know my name?"
Han Jian was stunned. How could the queen suddenly ask such a private question? Although the queen's name is not a secret, it is also a very disrespectful sin to mention the queen's name casually.
"Go back to Your Majesty... I know." Han Jian was panicked. He thought that the more calm the Empress at this time, the more likely it was to indicate an abnormal storm. Who said that he had "used" once half a year ago?
"You said that." The queen said quietly.
Han Jian smiled bitterly and said, "I dare not."
The queen glanced at Han Jian with a squinted look, and her eyes seemed to be saying, "Is there anything you dare not do?"
"My surname is Yang and his name is Rui. I was named Princess Ningxi at the age of twelve. When I was practicing in Shangqing Palace, my Taoist name was Faling. When I met your father, I was only seventeen years old and ascended the throne at the age of 18. It has been seventeen years now."
Han Jian was listening and thought about it in his mind. The queen was already thirty-five years old. In terms of age, it was not considered old, but he also knew that people these days were all about the age of vain. In fact, the queen had not celebrated her thirty-fourth birthday.
"Dongwang, how old are you?" the queen asked suddenly.
Han Jian seemed to understand when he heard this. The Queen was reminding him that the age difference between the two was too big, and it was impossible for "a good couple to be successful".
But age is not included in Han Jian's consideration. Han Jianxin said, "I have been a human being in two lifetimes, but I am not older than you in terms of age?"
"Go back to Your Majesty, I'm 18..."
"Eighteen years old, not young anymore, are you getting married?" the queen asked.
"Yes." Han Jian smiled embarrassedly, "I have married Miss Gu and the second Miss Nanwang Mansion as my wife."
The queen nodded slightly and said, "Well. I feel at ease when I can get married and establish a house. I have to take care of the military and political affairs of Jiangdu in the future, and I have more time to practice Buddhism and Taoism."
Han Jian felt uncomfortable when he heard this. Although a young woman in her prime, she knew what the suffering in the boudoir was. If she had to rely on the things of faith in Buddhism to dilute the "demonic obstacles" in her heart, Han Jian thought, isn't this not being able to get along with herself?
"Your Majesty is a commoner. The world is dependent on Your Majesty. If Your Majesty wants to get out of you, you can get out of you?" Han Jian asked suddenly.
"Hmm?" The queen looked at Han Jian with a little puzzled look in her eyes.
Although Han Jian's words were a bit straightforward, they also had a bit of Buddhist Zen in their words. The queen did not expect Han Jian to say such Zen words.
Han Jian continued: "Your Majesty wants to worship Buddha, so it can be said that standing on the ground is the Buddha. In the world, as long as there is a Buddha's heart, you don't have to be entangled with external affairs. Why do you need to stay away from the ancient Buddha in the green lamp?"
The queen squinted her eyes and looked at Han Jian, saying, "Dongwang, do you know how to practice Buddhism?"
Han Jian shook his head and smiled and said, "I don't understand."
"Then you say these things are just your one-sided words after all! Put away your delusional heart and stop being obsessed with it." The queen said with a cold expression.
Han Jian replied in a tough tone: "I believe that it is Your Majesty who is obsessed with it."
"you……"
The queen was a little angry, but sighed again, as if she felt that she could not persuade Han Jian just by saying a few words. She was not going to persuade him again.
At this time, the imperial chasing was ready and had already stopped on the road outside the dense forest. Because the queen specifically asked to talk to Han Jian, no one dared to come over to disturb him.
"Your Majesty, please return to the palace." Han Jian said.
The queen sighed and walked in front, and Han Jian followed behind. When the queen got on the imperial chasing, Han Jian got on the horse and followed the imperial chasing.
The guards of the Eastern Prince's Mansion were driving the way forward. The people all came out to watch along the way, but they could not see the queen's true appearance. However, seeing the Eastern Prince being with the Queen's chasing, the people of Jiangdu kept cheering, which meant that the rumors outside were false, and the Eastern Prince had not become a traitor.
As the emperor arrived at the east mansion in the city, more people were watching outside the mansion. The empress walked down the imperial mansion, and when the people saw that the rumored empress was wearing a Buddhist outfit, they were all exclaimed. The Wei Dynasty forbidden Buddha was not a matter of one day or one night. Now even the emperor has such a outfit, wouldn’t that mean that the Wei Dynasty forbidden Buddha would have no meaning?
After all, there are many Buddhist believers in Jiangdu, and they feel comforted, believing that this is a signal that the Wei Dynasty lifted the ban on Buddhism.
Freedom of faith is the highest spiritual level that people pursue at all times.
When the empress entered the palace, the ministers had already sent each other to arrange the ranks of the officials to meet the empress. The original temporary yamen in the court was also used as the place where the empress met with all officials.
This is the first time that the Empress has been in Jiangdu for more than half a year. Many ministers have prepared a lot of news, and the most acute of them is naturally the power dispute between officials of the Luoyang faction in the court and officials of the Dongwang Mansion.
